A new report on 3,375 students aged from 10 to 18 in seven Chinese cities found that 38 percent of them believe they use the Internet often.While most of them get useful information and use the Internet to help in their studies, some are not using it in a good way. In order to help young people use the Internet in a good way, a textbook on good Internet behavior has started to be used in some Shanghai middle schools this term. The book uses real examples to teach students all about good ways of using the Internet. The book gives useful advice such as it's good to read news or find helpful information to study.Some students also make online friends. But if you are meeting a friend offline, make sure your parents know. Teachers and parents all think the book is of great help. A teacher said the book would be a guide for teens using the Internet. She believes it will keep students away from bad sites. "Many students are using the Internet without guidance from their parents," she said. "The book will teach students how to be a good person in the digital age."1.

And even if he does not become rich, he wants people to think that he is. That is what "keeping up with the Joneses" is about. It is the story of someone who tried to look as rich as his neighbors.The expression was first used in 1913 by a young American called Arthur Momand. He told this story about himself. He began earning $125 a week atthe age of 23. That was a lot of money in those days. He got married and moved with his wife to a very wealthy neighborhood outside New York City. When he saw that rich people rode horses, Momand decided that he too would ride a horse. When he saw that rich people had servants, Momand decidedthat he too would have servants. He and his wife also bought a very large house in the neighborhood.But keeping up with the Joneses was hard work, and it brought a lot of stress. Because there was always someone who had more money, a nicer house, a faster car, etc. Momand and his wife could not keep up with all of them, and so they moved back to an apartment in New York City.Momand looked around him and noticed that many people do things just to keep up with the neighbors. He decided that this was the subject for an article. He wrote it and sent it to a magazine. His article was publishedin 1913, and the expression "keeping up with the Joneses" became popular.1. What does the expression "keeping up with the Joneses" mean?A. It means trying to look as rich as the people around you.B. It means trying to make more money.C. It means trying to be as happy as your neighbors.D. It means trying to be different from your neighbors.2. Where did Arthur Momand live after he got married?A. In an apartment in New York City.B. In a large house outside New York City.C. In a small town outside New York City.D. In a farmhouse outside New York City.3. Why did Arthur Momand and his wife move back to an apartment in New York City?A. Because they could not keep up with the rich people.B. Because they missed their old apartment.C. Because they did not like the new neighborhood.D. Because they were tired of living in a large house.4. What did Arthur Momand do with the expression "keeping up with the Joneses"?A. He made it up.B. He wrote an article about it.C. He heard it from others.D. He learned it from a magazine.Passage 3.Do you know that a fast reader can get the ideas better than a slow reader can? Of course, you save time by reading fast, but this is not the main reason for fast reading. The main reason is that you understand better what you are reading when you read fast.As your eyes move along the line of print, they make fixations (注视). It is important that you see several words at a fixation. It is also important that your eyes leave a group of words quickly and move on to another group. The number of letters or words that you see at a fixation iscalled your eye span. Pay attention to improving your eye span so that you can read more words at a fixation.Some people read very slowly one word at a time. Others keep their eyes on the same group of words for a long time. This is a bad habit in reading. If you have this habit, you should try to break it.1. The main reason for reading fast is that ____.A. you can save time.B. you can make fewer fixations.C. you can understand better.D. you can read more words at a fixation.2. The underlined word "span" in the second paragraph probably means____.A. number.B. length.C. range.D. limit.3. What is the bad habit in reading according to the passage?A. Moving your eyes quickly.B. Keeping your eyes on the same group of words for a long time.C. Paying attention to improving your eye span.D. Seeing several words at a fixation.4. Which of the following is TRUE?A. A fast reader can get the ideas better than a slow reader can.B. You should always read one word at a time.C. The faster you read, the better you understand.D. It is not important to improve your eye span.Passage 4.For many people, the name Baskin - Robbins is linked to sweet memories of eating ice cream. Irvine Robbins, who helped create this famous brand, died in May at the age of 90. His life's work of making fun and exciting ice cream flavors changed the way Americans enjoy this frozen treat.Irvine Robbins opened his first ice cream store in 1945 in Glendale, California. At the time, there were no stores that sold many different flavors of ice cream. So, Robbins had the idea to offer a variety of flavors to customers. He believed that people would be more interested in buying ice cream if they had more choices.Robbins worked hard to create new flavors. He experimented with different ingredients (原料) and combinations. Some of his early flavors, like Pralines and Cream and Jamoca Almond Fudge, became very popular.In 1948, Robbins joined with his brother - in - law, Burton Baskin, to form Baskin - Robbins. The company was known for its "31 flavors" slogan. This meant that customers could choose from 31 different flavors of ice cream at any Baskin - Robbins store.Over the years, Baskin - Robbins continued to innovate (创新). They introduced new flavors, such as Mint Chocolate Chip and Cookies 'n Cream.They also developed different types of ice cream products, like ice cream cakes and sundaes.Today, Baskin - Robbins is one of the most well - known ice cream brands in the world. It has stores in many countries and is loved by ice cream lovers everywhere.1. What made Baskin - Robbins different from other ice cream stores at first?A. Its location.B.

1Everyone wants to win a first-place blue ribbon, to be the best in something. Even kids in Kindergarten want that blue ribbon. In sports, I was never a blue-ribbon person. In a race, I was always 11 . In baseball I was likely to be hit on the head or drop the ball. During the spring of my kindergarten year, our class had a field trip to a park in a town about twenty miles away. Making that drive now is no big 12 but when you’re six and you’ve lived in a town of 300 people all your life, going to a big town of a couple of thousand people is really something.I don’t remember too much about it. But there was one that I will never forget —the three-legged race. The parents tied our feet together. One little boy got me for a 13 . He was the second most 14 boy in our class so he usually won at everything and I knew that with me tied to him he didn’t have a chance. And I’m sure he knew he was in trouble. The gun sounded and we were off. Some couples were falling and stumbling all around us, 15 we stayed on our feet and made it to the other side. 16 , when we turned around and headed back for home, we were in the lead! Only one couple had a chance to win, and they were a good several yards behind us.A few feet from the finish line, disaster struck: I tripped and fell. We were 17 enough that my partner could have easily dragged me across the finish line and won. But he didn’t. Instead he stopped, 18 down and helped me up — just at the other couple crossed the finish line.

Still, she could 12 take in the cruelty of her father’s words.“I know Bay’s old”, Muriel told her dad, “but he’s my favorite. Won’t you let me keep him? He won’t be a problem.”“We use horses for labor,” her dad said, “We don’t keep them as pets.”Muriel understood. However, she knew Bay was different. He had a personality all of his own. She went to Bay and 13 the old brown horse’s head. As Bay touched her hand with his nose, Muriel couldn’t imagine what the pasture would be like with out him.The snow was falling faster, and dark gray clouds were settling over the peaks. Then Muriel had an idea. She jumped onto Bay and dashed over the meadow. “We’ll 14 the sheep and show Dad how well you work.” Muriel said.The sheep 15 in a high pasture, bleating(咩咩地叫) at the storm clouds. Suddenly, Muriel heard a lone(单个的) bleat from above. She got off Bay and began to climb up the steep wall. She was almost at the top when the heel of her boot slipped into a crack. She lost her 16 and fell onto a rock. She tried to stand, but her foot hurt too much.Then Bay got into 17 under the rock. He was telling Muriel to crawl onto his back! Painfully, Muriel got onto the horseback and Bay carried her down the snow trail, 18 and carefully.On the way down, they met Dad riding his gray horse.“What happened?” he asked in a(n) 19 voice.“Bay saved me.” Muriel told him what happened.

We looked at it together wondering how wonderful these creatures were. Then I threw it aside on the beach and got back to reading my book.11 , she got the starfish back, filled her Frisbee (飞盘) with sea water and put the little fellow in there. After about an hour, she brought the Frisbee over to me to announce that the starfish was 12 . I had previously seen it as stiff as a board and so, at first, I just thought that this was a bit of her childhood 13 at work. But she pointed out that the fish was moving toward the edge of the Frisbee that was in the shadow. She then turned the Frisbee to expose the fish to the sun and very 14 the starfish made its way back to the shadow on the other side.With the logic of a girl of five years old, she then asked if she could keep it as a pet. After I had 15 why she couldn’t, I told her to throw him back into the sea. She then asked me if she could have it just for one night. I thought she had earned the right, so I 16 . She brought some fresh sea water in her bucket and 17 it as best she could.The next day, we took it down to the harbor where the water was deepest and I 18 it as far as I could out to sea. We both felt really 19 that she had saved it and given it a second chance.Sometimes, the world can indeed be changed by ordinary people, just like you, 20 the tiny and unimportant actions.

Before I could even get acquainted with my schoolmates, my family was on the move again. I became very 11 because of this.But a girl with dark skin and long shiny hair changed me. Her best characteristics are her openness and 12 . She is always smiling, like a beautiful sunflower following the sun. Without doubt I enjoyed being with her and soon we became good friends. As time went by, I grad ually became a happy girl. But this joyful period didn’t last long. We were admitted to different colleges. I felt like I had gone back to my always-on-the-move childhood. I felt 13 and helpless and I was afraid that I would 14 her as my best friend. She stayed calm and said to me: “Rain, you can achieve more than I do, so 15 to your dreams and make a big effort! Real friendship doesn’t fade and we will be best friends forever.” Maybe she didn’t realize what a great 16 she was to me at that time.However, it turned out that my concerns were well-founded (有根据的). I felt that the 17 between us was getting bigger and bigger. One day, she sent me a text message happily telling me that she had fallen in love with a handsome boy in her class.I felt happy for her, but at the same time I was secretly worried about our friendship. I 18 her several times intending to tell her to think carefully about her relationship with the boy, but I got no more messages from her. I felt sad that perhaps our friendship would not 19 . I had almost given up hope until she visited me at my campus a week later. She looked pale but was wearing the most beautiful smile. She gave me a big hug and said: “I’m sorry. I want to be myselfand your friend forever!” We cried together, ignoring the people walking past. She told me her sad story, and we knew we had gone back to how it was before.Now I firmly believe that distance and time can’t 20 you from a friend.

I couldn’t believe the 11 in him. In fact, he didn’t even seem like the same person.When I first knew Bill, back in college, he was one of the most easygoing, carefree people I had ever met. He was always ready to have a party. He thought 12 of going out for pizza at three o’clock in the morning or driving 50 miles to see an old movie he really liked. Bill and I were in the same dormitory in college, and life was never 13 when he was around. With him there was one wild adventure after another. Sometimes I wonder how we ever 14 to study for our exams.Last weekend I was in Houston on business, and I run into Bill in the bar at the hotel. 15 , I wasn’t even sure it was he. Was this short-haired, conservatively dressed businessman really the same pers on? I wasn’t really sure until I approached him, but it indeed was Bill. Now he works for a bank. He 16 most of the evening about his job, his new car and his house. How he had changed! Back when we were in college, the 17 thing Bill cared about were possessions. Now they seemed to be his major interest. Although I have changed quite a bit myself, somehow I never imagined Bill changing so much. My 18 of him remained the one I had formed at the time when we were college students together.I suppo se it’s foolish to expect people to remain the same, especially 19 I have changed so much myself.

Despite my 11 for greater contact with local students, unless I initiated the contact, it wouldn’t happen. Local students are not interested in contacts with the international students, because they regard us as shy, 12 and sometimes snobby （势利的）people. Of course we know that’s not true. I want to change their opinions.After 13 the problem, I put on my “confidence mask” each morning and walked around with a smile on my face. I chatted with people whenever I had the chance. I showed that I was not afraid to 14 them, and that I was worthy of being a friend.A side-effect of my 15 confidence was that my emotions occasionally broke down Only in the 16 of my room, where no one could see, would I reveal my real emotions. All the rejections, funny looks, and 17 behind my back calling me a weirdo（古怪的人）melted into tears. Once that was done, I would put on my confidence mask once again and start a new day.It finally worked. My name became known throughout the school as I appeared to be 18 and active. Slowly, I discovered that I no longer needed to put on my confidence mask. I had real friends. Instead of dragging myself to school and 19 to be happy, I was truly happy. I could not believe it when I was elected to the student government as Deputy Head boy----the first international student to receive the title.From my experience in New Zealand, I believe one thing will always be true: If you try your best to reach your goals, you’ll achieve your 20 dreams.11.

The constant demands, together with the exhausting effects of interrupted sleep, can make it hard to find the time and energy to exercise or prepare healthy meals. Here are some tips for common problems new moms face: Problem: No time to cook proper meals. When you’re caring for a baby, cooking proper meals seems like a luxury. Instead you rely on convenience meals and processed foods. Solution: Try to get more support. Friends, family members, and neighbors are often delighted to help, so don’t feel you have to do everything yourself. Use the extra time to prepare some healthy meals. Follow the basic rules of cutting down on fat and increasing fruit and vegetable intake. Problem: Sugary or high-fat snacks. Tiredness can leave you feeling sleepy, rundown, and in need of an immediate help from sweets and high-fat snacks. Solution: Turn snacking to your advantage. Eat high-fiber, low-fat, low-sugar snacks; these will fill you up without adding too many calories. For an energy boost, eat a banana, which is high in potassium—a mineral essential for muscle and nerve function—or try a handful of raisins, which are high in iron but low in fat. Problem: No time or energy to exercise. A baby is a constant demand on your time, so you’re too tired or busy to exercise. Solution: Increasing activity levels will help you obtain a net calorie loss, while toning exercises will tighten your muscles. Though you may feel too tired to do any exercise, it is worth persevering because in the long run your energy levels will increase. Involve your baby in your postnatal exercises; start by walking with the child in a carriage or sling. Swimming is another aerobic exercise that you can both enjoy by joining a mother and baby class. Many pools have childcare facilities, so you can swim a few laps on your own. Problem: Lack of sleep. The new baby interrupts your sleep, depleting your energy and leaving you tense and exhausted. Solution; Practice some relaxation techniques whenever you have a few free moments. Meditation, visualization, or yoga can help your body recover and give you more energy.41．What’s the subject of the text?A．The influence of babies on their motherB．Weight-loss solutions for new momsC．The reasons of new moms’ fatnessD．How to exercise and prepare healthy meals正确答案：B42．What’s the common problem that new moms don’t face?A．Living on convenience meals and processed foods.B．Having sweets to get rid of tiredness and sleepiness quickly.C．That new moms find it hard to have time and energy to exercise.D．Sleeping too long can make them fat.正确答案：D43．The underlined word “depleting” in the passage meansA．consumingB．disturbingC．accumulatingD．saving正确答案：A44．Which of the following is true?A．It’s impossible to do any exercise with your baby.B．You can’t swim alone in the pool with a baby.C．Meditation or yoga can make you refreshed.D．Low-fat and high-fiber snacks will add you too many calories.正确答案：CThe day after Thanksgiving is considered the first day of the holiday shopping season in the United States. It even has a name—“Black Friday. “The name comes from the idea that this is the day when store owners begin to show a profit for the year. In the past, before calculators and computers, workers recorded the profits and losses of American businesses in special books. They used red ink to record losses. They used black ink to record profits. They used the term “in the red”to mean losing money. “In the black”meant making a profit. So “Black Friday” was the day when the store owners moved from being “in the red” to “in the black. “Many people consider “Black Friday” to be the busiest shopping day of the year. But that is probably false. Researchers say it may be the day when the largest number of people go to stores. But it is not necessarily the day when shoppers spend the largest amount of money. Some experts say Americans just want to get out of the house the day after Thanksgiving. And many stores reduce some of their prices on “Black Friday. “However, experts say that many people wait until much closer to Christmas, December 25, hoping to find even lower prices. They say the busiest day of the year in terms of the amount of shoppers and sales is usually the Saturday before Christmas. A marketing services company carried out a public opinion study about shopping last month. It asked almost one thousand Americans about their gift buying plans. One-third said they plan to go to stores to shop on the day after Thanksgiving. The study found that these shoppers are mainly young people,probably because older people do not want to deal with huge crowds.

Government regulators plotted the arrests as a major step forward for food and drug safety, and said the suspects were locked up during nationwide inspections of thousands of restaurants, food and drug production facilities and wholesale food markets. Determined to stop producing and even exportingbad-quality goods, China promised earlier this year to improve its food and drug safety regulations and to close down illegal manufacturers and exporters. Last summer, the government even sentenced to death the former head of the nation’s food and drug administration, after he was accused of accepting bribes and failing to properly supervise food and drug companies, some of which had even sold fake drugs. But the government also acknowledged today that problems remain. In its announcement, it said that this month only 82 percent of the food tested in medium and large cities in China met food safety standards, and nearly 30 percent of the restaurants surveyed by regulators had failed food safety inspections. The announcement of the arrests, which was made over the weekend but was not posted on a government web site until today, offered few details about the nature and seriousness of the food and drug safety violations involved. The government said only that it had investigated 626 criminal cases. In fact, China acknowledged earlier this year that while it believes 99 percent of its food exports meet safety standards, only about 80 percent of the food sold domestically has passed inspections. The government also said this week that since July, inspectors working at Chinese ports have destroyed or recalled over 1,000 tons of fake products. China is also working with American and European regulators to cooperate on product safety and to put into place new methods to prevent harmful products.49．Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?A．Arrests Made To Stop Fake ProductsB．Actions To Ensure Safe ProductsC．The Greatest Chinese GovernmentD．Do Be Careful Of Fake Products正确答案：B50．Which of the following is WRONG according to the passage?A．Safe food remains a problem despite measures taken.B．Almost all the food exports have passed inspections.C．How regulations were violated was announced clearly.D．China is taking new measures to prevent harmful products.正确答案：C51．Why does the writer give the example of in paragraph 4?A．To show deserves the punishment.B．To show the government’s determination on safety of products.C．To tell any regulation violation will not escape punishment.D．To warn people of the danger of using fake products.正确答案：BWhat does it mean to say that we live in a world of persuasion? It means that we live among competing interests. Your roommate’s need to study for an exam may take priority over pizza. Your instructor may have good reasons not to change your grade. And the object of your romantic interest may, alas, have other choices. In such a world, persuasion is the art of getting others to give fair and favorable consideration to our point of view. When we persuade, we want to influence how others believe and behave. We may not always win, other points of view may be more persuasive, depending on the listener, the situation, and the merits of the case. But when we practice the art of persuasion, we try to ensure that our position receives the attention it deserves. Some people, however, object to the very idea of persuasion. They may regard it as an unwelcome intrusion into their lives or as a control or domination. In contrast, we believe that persuasion is unavoidable—to live is to persuade. Persuasion may be ethical or unethical, selfless or selfish, inspiring or unpleasant. Persuaders may enlighten our minds or take advantage of our weakness. Ethical persuasion, however, calls on sound reasoning and is sensitive to the feelings and needs of listeners. Such persuasion can help us apply the wisdom of the past to the decisions we now must make. Therefore, an essential part of education is learning to resist the one kind of persuasion and to encourage and practice the other. Beyond its personal importance to us, persuasion is essential to society. The right to persuade and be persuaded is the foundation of the American political system, guaranteed by the First Amendment to the Constitution52．What is the main idea of this passage?A．We live among competing interests.B．When we persuade, we want to influence others.C．Persuasion is both good and bad, and it is all around us.D．Persuasion is essential to society and is built into our government.正确答案：C53．Which of the following can be inferred in the passage?A．Persuasion is dangerous to the relationship.B．Persuasion is difficult to deal with.C．Persuasion is not always welcomed.D．Persuasion helps build a harmonious society.正确答案：C54．The third paragraph intends to tell us thatA．to live is to persuadeB．we may not always winC．we live among competing interestsD．persuasion can be ethical or unethical正确答案：A55．The author’s purpose in writing this passage is toA．tell an interesting storyB．persuade the reader that a point of view is correctC．entertain the reader with many interesting examplesD．appeal to the reader’s senses正确答案：BTranslationSection ADirections: Translate the following English into Chinese.56．In 1872 Thomson led a scientific expedition, which lasted for four years and brought home thousands of samples from the sea.正确答案：自1872年始，汤姆逊领导了一次科学考察，这次考察进行了四年，从海洋中采集了成千上万的标本。
